A rich text block contains formatted text. You can format rich text using common options like bold and italics, which aren't available with plain text. Creator Studio lets you add rich text blocks to your campaigns. You can use these blocks in newsletters and even pair them with inline images. This article shows you how to configure a rich text block. For an overview of all campaign creation options, refer to Create a New Campaign.
